Listener Opinions

Darrin | 2/14/2014

" You can always count on Connelly for a great read. "

Ed | 2/8/2014

" It's starts with a lawyer getting killed so that will be an attraction for many. Otherwise, it's a predictable yarn but a guilty pleasure. "

Jennifer | 2/2/2014

" Another good book. Liked the first one better but has filled in some holes from Boot 1 and Book 4. Will start book 3 momentarily :).....Connelly does a great job making you feel like you are in the court room. "

Landon | 2/1/2014

" Gotta admit... Michael Connelly is really impressing me. I read The Lincoln Lawyer, and have been pretty hooked since, working my way through his books featuring Detective Harry Bosch and Jack Mcavoy. Brass Verdict features all three characters. Really good stuff. "

Charles | 1/22/2014

" Connelly has several characters he leads in his book and this had 3 of them - McEvoy, Bosch, Haller. "

MepoInc | 1/18/2014

" I like the aspect of the Mickey Haller Series of the courtroom action. Good series and it follows along with aspects of the previous book. I like the Mickey Spillane style too. I recommend for action / mystery readers. "

Caroline | 1/17/2014

" I rate this one about a 3.5. I think that soon I will be putting out a shingle to practice law with the number of legal thrillers I have been reading lately....no way too much stress. I am a big fan of Michael Connelly and the Micky Hollar series. I read this one out of sequence and think that it would have helped to read the books in this series in order, but none-the-less they were all a good read if you like legal novels. This series always reminds me of a chess match, where Hollar, the attorney, explains his moves and strategies as the book progresses. There are always and few twists and turns thrown in to keep things interesting. "

Rick | 1/8/2014

" A good read. Interesting that it ties together the Lincoln Lawyer (Mickey Haller) and Harry Bosch. Recommended. "

Zoran | 1/8/2014

" Truly 4.5 stars. "

Cyneva | 12/24/2013

" Connelly rarely disappoints - and The Brass Verdict was no exception. This is Connelly's second Mickey Haller book (the first one being The Lincoln Lawyer). After finishing this latest Haller entry, now I want to re-watch the movie that was based on book #1. LOL "

Mary Sue | 12/23/2013

" More twits that one would think possible...but it all made sense. Good read from a great series. "

Chris Grover | 12/22/2013

" Very fast and interesting reading. Finished book and had a surprise twist at the end I didn't expect. "

Courtney Milford | 12/21/2013

" Good. Most of the "Lincoln Lawyer" character books are good for an airplane read. "

Tony | 12/2/2013

" Good read. Slower on this side than with Bosch. Surprising end... "

Abdul Musa | 11/25/2013

" Sadly I did not like this one as much as the first book. Good read nonetheless. "

Robin | 11/17/2013

" good book, surprised me at the end. "

patricia | 11/2/2013

" These are fun books about attorney strategy and lawyer/cop dynamics. Diverting and undemanding. "

Jane | 12/7/2012

" I like the Mickey Haller books... this is the 2nd book or follow-up to The Lincoln Lawyer. I hear that they are looking to make them into movies and that Matthew McConaughey is going to be the lead. "

Christine | 11/13/2012

" Like this book. Did not mind listening to it a second time; Moves along quickly, kept my interest, have read, tried to read, all of the Connelly books, mostly Bosch, because I like them all. "

Lamont Cranston | 5/27/2012

" First book read by this author. If you like court room drama, interesting characters, twists, and a generally easy read, then this is for you. Fans of Stuart Woods, Tannenbaum, Turow will ejjoy this author. "

Peggy | 5/1/2012

" Good sequel to the Lincoln Lawyer. It is a good read with some twists and turns. "

Gordon | 3/12/2012

" This is the second Lincoln Lawyer novel. It would be best to read the first one before reading this. This is slick mystery writing and a very entertaining, light read. "

" I love the Mikey Haller series, this book was great and having Bosch's character pop up made it even better. "

Bo White | 11/14/2011

" Ah, yes! Visions of Matthew McConaughey danced through my head (from the film version of The Lincoln Lawyer--part 1 of this series). "

LA | 5/23/2011

" I appreciated the damaged nature of each character set alongside their obvious strengths. The storyline held my interest and surprised me aufficiently, not one of those books in which I see the next step coming. Connelly tells a good story!
